Lean and Agile Enablement and Coaching
RADTAC has been responsible for some of the largest and most successful Lean and Agile enablement and transformation programmes in the world.
Uniquely amongst Lean and Agile specialists, RADTAC provides a full range of Lean and Agile enablement and coaching services in all of the leading Lean and Agile methods – eXtreme Programming, Scrum, Lean Software Development, DSDM Atern and the Agile Unified process, etc. This enables us to provide the appropriate service package to address the specifics of each individual client situation.
RADTAC is also the only Lean and Agile specialist to provide services beyond the normal Lean and Agile sphere into those areas of traditional and other contemporary best-practice methods which must often be addressed for a successful, sustainable Lean and Agile transformation. These include PRINCE2 and similar project management approaches and the full RUP systems development method.
The maturity of our PragmaticAgile™ Transformation Approach builds-on our extensive experience of organisational change programmes. Using this approach we were responsible at British Airways for the World’s first enterprise-wide adoption of Agile for all projects.

In Butler Group’s opinion, RADTAC should be considered as a mentor for medium-to-large organisations that seek to adopt Lean and Agile practices and who lack their own in-house expertise, whether this be in Lean and Agile methods or the Organisational Transformation approaches required for its successful adoption and sustained use.
